MOSQUITOES OUR GREATEST THREAT?

Mosquitoes kill more humans than any other animal on the planet, making the annoying bloodsuckers our biggest predator. From Malaria to West Nile Virus, over one million people die from a blood borne illness transmitted by mosquitoes each year.

If they can also carry the zombie sickness, we may not stand a chance of survival when the dead rise. Here are some other facts about mosquitoes you may want to keep in mind:

  1. I believe if mosquitoes could be a carrier of the virus if the feed
    off the dead because they carrier other diseases without issues
    like west nile. But I don’t think mosquitoes will feed off the dead
    because zombie have decaying blood. Mosquitoes only feed off of
    animals to get the nourishment they need to reproduce. So why would
    Mosquitoes want to feed off of the dead. There is is no nourishment
    therefore no point to feed off the dead. Fresh zombies with the blood
    still warm? It is possible. Someone who is bitten before and infected before
    turning? Also possible.

  2. i believe that if the virus is human focused, then the mosquitoes that do dine on the dead will just instantly be killed, as the virus would overwhelm the mosquito once it starts to digest. That is to say IF the zombies are even appetizing to them, as they mainly focus on our CO2 emmissions..

  3. Ugh I was thinking the same thing! Along with wild animals that feed on the dead and come into contact with the living, I need to contact you guys about zombie comics I am writing!
